No sleep issue with 10.9.2 on D630 nVidia here... But I'm using native power management/SpeedStep with Kozlek's FakeSMC. Try and use the M4300 pack I posted a few months ago.

I'm afraid you need SL8MA dual-core Paxville Xeon DP CPUs (and therefore XC837 motherboard) for anything above Snow Leopard. 64bit single core Irwindale will simply not do... All my attempts to boot one of those AMD kernels failed until I swapped my initial Irwindale Xeon processors (3.8GHz, 2Mo L2) with dual-core 2.8GHz Paxville models.

No issue at all; 'using VoodooHDA.

Confirmed. New kernel 13.1.0 this time...

If you want to discuss T510, please start a new thread.

1) free app called "Display Menu" off AppStore 2) sort of

Most likely, yes! Change your serial number with Chameleon Wizard SMBIOS editing...

Make sure your Ethernet interface is 1st installed interface, i.e. en0. Check with Terminal command ifconfig. If it's not, remove all interfaces from Network System Pref Pane and all plist from /Library/Preferences/System Configuration. Reboot then add your Ethernet interface to begin with and the rest afterwards.

i would start all over with the bootpack I gave you (it has the correct Ethernet kext by the way). Redo your USB installer and make sure to re-run myHack at the end to install the bootpack to uour USB installer with "install Extra".

Try this pack... D430_Extra_Lion.zip

If you have an Intel wireless card, disable or remove it.

You probably need to install the older AppleACPIPlatform kext in /Extra/Extensions and install it with myHack->myfix (quick) to fix this. The kext is available off many Latitude D Series like D620 or D630.

Yes, our site is allergic to these tools. We only support muHack installation method here but if you wish to pursue with your other method, I guess you already know it has its own dedicated web site.

The idea is to incite Hackintoshers to educate themselves, not to spoonfeed them. Hence the repeated invitations to search, read and experiment, especially when matters/requests previously covered resurface.

Erm, did you open any of the above links to read the threads??? For a low-profile card that works well and OOB in Lion/ML/Mav, look for info mentioned in relation to Vostro 200 desktop...

Did you do a search on the forum at all? https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/273-optiplex-745/page-2?hl=+optiplex%20+745 https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/2013-dell-optiplex-745-ultra-small-form-factor/ https://osxlatitude.com/index.php?/topic/2346-optiplex-745-cant-boot-from-drive-snow-leopard/?hl=%2Boptiplex+%2B745 Install lspcidrv.kext in /E/E then use Terminal comamnd lspci -nn to find out the hardware specs of your system. lspcidrv.kext.zip

Try this one: IOATAFamily.kext.zip

Did you try HDD set to legacy in BIOS at all?

You can simply boot your USB installer and when you reach the installer main screen, go to Tools->myHack and run "Install Extra". Point to the Extra folder of your USB installer as source and your HDD as destination.

Our EDP system build handles all those points and has done so for a few years now. Closed matters as far as we're concerned.

You said you "fixed perms". What exactly did you do for that? The posts from mckginkel & mcr are quite explicit.

Why do you have 2 battery managers? You should only use one. I use VoodooBattery personally. You're missing the Patched_10.7_AppleRTC kext to avoid CMOS reset, but maybe you've patched the DSDT instead... Other than than, kext list looks Ok. Oh, I was going to forget: you know, you can update to 10.7.5, it's totally safe.

Your plists are Ok but: 1) SMBIOS profile of MacBookPro5,1 would be better than MacBook5,1 to maximise nVidia GPU performance 2) you can eventually remove the -v flag in the boot plist and reduce the timeout to 1 or 2 seconds

You don't need IOATAFamily or VoodooTSCSync kexts in /E/E, you can get rid of them and run myFix (quick). Update your Chameleon bootloader to latest version (r2371 at time of writing) with Chameleon Wizard. You should see 4GB of RAM if that's what you have. You can always verify this in BIOS info page. Make sure your BIOS is configured as per recommended settings and I would suggest you use BIOS A16 or later. Re: benchmarking, you have the least powerful FSB800 T7xx Merom CPU with only 2Mo L2 cache. As such, your benchmark results will be amongst the lowest. Upgrade to something like a T9300/T9500 if you can, these tend to go for cheap on auctions sites. At 2.5/2.6GHz and 6Mo L2 cache, these Penryn Core2Duo CPUs make great little performers! You are running a 64bit kernel, ML does not have a 32bit kernel at all. I also recommend that you proceed with the performance tuning we've published on the forum and in the Articles section of the web site. You'd have much to gain in terms of performance, especially with graphics.
